Reply to comment by HumbleCamel9022 in Why people act like james cameron is a great filmmaker because his movie gross well at Box-office while also hating directors like Michael bay who do the exact same thing ? by HumbleCamel9022

Well if you’re comparing Transformers to Avatar I’m not going to really argue, I don’t like either. Although with Transformers it’s because it has no discernible story and was a mess, Avatar had a pedestrian story but was very pretty.

But JC gets bashed on here for Avatar, or at least the movie does. JC isn’t a legend because of Avatar though, it’s for Aliens and Terminator 1 and 2 and basically influencing a generation of film makers with movies that were visually and narratively fantastic. Bay hadn’t done that.
